Do you clean up your C Drive? You need to remove cookies and Temp files whenever you can. C cleaner is an excellent free program you can install ..and also, we run...Adware....to remove all the junk that slows down your harddrive. Also, you have to prompt for updates....all the time. They could happen daily...
Also, if you are running adware already, make sure you are selecting your criteria to delete with the right click option because some people just click through this and it doesn't select anything to clean up....just info...

i had a similar problem but had been solved. This could be cause by virus, spyware and ardware. what u have to do is to get the better antivirus (mcafe enterprise version my recent antivirus i know is the best) and try to update it every day. Scan all your hard with this antivirus. it will remove every virus, adware and spyware in ur computer. Then try to run some disk repair utility like Disk Difragmentation by click on run on the start menu and "defrag" then press enter key.

You should clear out your temporary Internet files and cookies. It's easy, just right click on Internet Explorer and click on Properties. Then under the "General" tab, under Temporary Internet Files click on Delete Files and then a box will pop up asking if you want to delete all offline content click in the box and click OK. After it is done clearing the files (hour glass will go away) click on Delete Cookies, after that is done, click on ok. This should help speed up your PC. I clear mine out at least once a week to keep my PC running fast. Oh yeah, and you might want to run your anti-virus to check for any bugs.

google earth runs slow and requires a fast connection. plus you should think able deleting files from the Temp Internet Files found in the internet options.
get this ccleaner and it should fix a few things for you.

Well in close to all groups, your web is actually plugged into a few field on or close your avenue. When all people plugged into that field attempt to max out their web connections you may also revel in a few slower web. As in your laptop, it does have anything to do with it. Your internet browser has to load, and your laptop runs it. Viruses too can gradual down your laptop and absorb plenty of your web connection, making it look gradual

Scan ur computer for viruses, spyware. You can also add memory to your computer or uninstall programs u don't need. You can even disable or change auto updates of some of the programs u have.

I have the same problem too it's either your Internet access is too slow or your computer is infected that can make your computer run slowly too.
